The Haruhiism Time Capsule Project - Part III
Now that my first wave of submission has been accepted, it’s time to get serious. Fellow Haruhiists, your time has come. We are going to make Haruhiism last for eternity! Again, please read my previous two entires here and here if you have no idea what I am talking about.
The timer on the official Yahoo Time Capsule website shows that we have 27 days left to do this thing.
Here’s what you have to do to show your support for Haruhiism:
Preparation
Download this Haruhiism logo.
Print it out onto one single piece of A4 paper. Laminate it if you want.
Bring a camera, some tape and scissors and the printout along with you and walk around any location you want.
Take pictures of various places and stick the Haruhiism logo somewhere that is easily visible, but try not to make it the obvious focus of the picture. Please try to ensure that your locations fall into one of the ten broad themes prescribed by Yahoo Time Capsule project: Love, Anger, Fun, Sorrow, Faith, Beauty, Past, Now, Hope, You. This should be pretty easily done since the categories are really broad.
Ignore the stares of the passer-bys. Alternatively, try to convert them at your peril. (I shall salute you)
Submission
Proceed to the nearest computer with the pictures in hand. I chose my school’s computer lab for this purpose out of convenience and lack of time. (Shhh…)
Open up your preferred image-editing software (preferably Photoshop!) and resize the photos to about 1024 x 768. Do some touch-ups with the contrast etc. if required.
Load up Firefox (or Opera) and proceed to:
http://timecapsule.yahoo.com/capsule.php
Internet Explorer users are banned from Haruhiism. You heathens!
Click on “Contribute” in the navigation bar at the top right.
Login to your Yahoo account if requested. Register if you don’t have one.
Select “Picture” and then pick an appropriate theme for your submission. Extra Haruhiism Points for “Faith”!
Select the picture you wish to upload and fill in the details in the next page.
Try not to draw attention to the Haruhiism logo in your description. Say some like “This is a picture of my room.” You can choose to enter some personal details such as your age, gender and location at the left-hand side of the form.
Enter the URL for this post for “Related Web Site Address” if you wish. This is completely optional, but it does give people who stumble upon the picture by random an explanation for the logo.
Alternatively, please link to:
http://haruhiism.darkmirage.com/
Enter “haruhiism” for the tag.
Select a charity to support. I recommend “Seeds of Peace” or “UNICEF”.
Check through your submission and submit away!
Post-submission
Wait for an approval e-mail. This usually takes only a few minutes, but my original submission for the logo took 14 hours to be approved.
Post the link here so that we can keep a count!
ALL HAIL HARUHI-SAMA! Let’s aim for at least 100 Haruhiism logos before the submission deadline in 27 days.
Spread the message today!
P.S. I am serious here. Show your love for Haruhi-sama!
P.P.S. Will the person who created this vector art of the logo please leave a reply so that I may give proper credit?

I’ve spread the word through the RVB forums in this thread, as well as my personal blogs. I know there are some Haruhi fans who read, and hopefully they’ll contribute.

Hmm, now how to sabotage this insidious plot…?

Gao. I just took my first two common test papers today. More to go next week.
I’ll be going around the city to take more pictures after my papers are all over, which is probably next Saturday or Sunday. More confirmations soon.
October 13th, 2006 at 2:22 pm
heh, you BETTER be going to the city tomorrow, mcsamab :P
I’m wearing my shirt tomorrow (which happens to have that exact logo), and perhaps loading up my phone winth ringtones or something.
I’ll see what i can do with this though >>;

Interesting. 5 of us Singaporeans should meet somewhere sometime (preferably Plaza Singapura, there’s loads happening there) and do this thing together. All my exams are long since done. Well dne, DarkMirage.

Or you could join tjhan on his figurine photoshoot. As he takes multiples angle shots of his figurines, you go around the area Haruhi-fying everything. Or if you’re cunning enough you can get the Haruhiism picture into tjhan’s figurine review photos.
